Submit enough pictures (wedding, honeymoon, your pictures together plus your pictures with families and friends, etc).

when my husband went to submit documents to vfs ...they returned all the pictures back to him and said to take at interview.... we took nearly 20 pictures.. so its best to take as many as you want...by the way at interview they did ask to see pictures..

We took over 100 pictures to the interview and the CO took his sweet old time to see each and every one of them. There can never be enough, so take them all with you if you can.

Good luck!!

I will bring 10.. I don't want to exaggerate and bring tons of evidence..

Just enough to back your case...

TRUTH will always come out..

Depends on what you think is 'just enough'. We took about 25 pictures and were given a 221g for among other things, "more pictures," because the CO thought we looked too posed in our pictures. (As if posing is not what you do when someone snaps a picture of you.) So sometimes exaggeration is not out of order, nor can you count on TRUTH to come out in your half an hour interraction w/ someone who is on the other side of a bullet-proof plexiglass.

I say, bury them w/ evidence if you have it....take it all w/ you. If its asked for you have it w/ you, if not, well hey you carried a few extra documents w/ you that were not required. What's the harm? But at least you know for sure that you have all your evidence w/ you.

We took 2 scrapbooks full of them. I believe the most important are those that show the two of you with other people....IMHO!

dont skimp now at this point, albums if you have, i have heard of as many as 200 being sent (and visa was issued) so do best you can

take as many as pictures you have. vfs ppl will not take pictures they would ask you to take it to interview

take all: wedding album, pictures of both of you and with families and honeymoon too....

more you have more you gain.

best of luck

I will bring the strongest evidence I have..

Do they keep the evidence you bring to the interview? If we bring our wedding album will they want to keep it? We haven't even gotten our NOA1 yet but I have been curious about this. Also can I go to the interview with my wife?

Thanks,

Not to be disrespectul but having a child w/ a US citizen (however registered that child is) proves that the foreign spouse and the USC had sexual contact. It does not prove documentarily, the validity of the underlying relationship upon which you (the foreign spouse) are applying for immigration benefits. Your "evidence" should be geared towards proving that you have a valid (in your case) marriage w/ your USC spouse...i.e constant communication, seeing each other as much as possible, documents such as joint accounts, filing taxes together or any other documentary proof you can show that you and your spouse are in a viable marriage. Some consulates may or may not be such sticklers for documentary evidence...but the marriage is what is required for you to prove in order to be issued a visa.

Thanks,

You are advised to bring enough copies of things, so that if the CO requests it, you can leave that item w/ them....i.e. bring duplicates of anything you want to keep for your records.

Oh we completely understand that.. I am not trying to base our whole chance of approval on our daughter being a USC.. I am just saying that its a powerful proof with our other proofs like Marriage Cert, Joint Loans, Pictures, Love Letters, Long Distance calling logs, etc..

I am just saying its a big factor..

I take it from our application for I-130.. I didn't even send any pictures.. Just sent the necessary docs and my daughter's docs and we got approved in 19 days.. No RFE!

Call It a luck but it is what it is..

You're right....I was just clarifying to make sure others reading this topic understand that evidence is taken as together as a whole...one piece is just that, one pice and only as a whole does it make sense and get approved.

Yes, back in the day Vermont was known for approving petitions in less than a month....2-3 weeks was the average. I remember feeling upset that those being able to file in Vermont got their approvals in one month or less while those of us in California were waiting 3+ monts. That was just the approval situation at the time you filed. Now w/ all service centers being overloaded....the wait times are longer no matter what the circumstances/details of the petition are..
